We stayed with another couple for four days in early May. It was sort of a spur of the minute type of trip and we selected Chicago and the Palomar because they had a Picasso pkg. We were not disappointed. The hotel staff was outstanding, especially Bobby the concierge, who was very helpful. The evening "Happy Hour" was a real... More

This was our first visit to Chicago. The hotel is in a great location for walking the River North area. Only a few blocks from Michigan ave, a 15 minute walk to the Navy Pier/Millenium park/John Hancock Tower, 5 minutes from the House of Blues and close to many restaurants. The area is very safe. We walked all around the... More

The concierge staff at this hotel were outstanding! Extremely helpful and pleasant with every request we had. The location of this hotel was perfect and the room was quite comfortable, other than the bed which was a bit firmer than we'd prefer. The shower head was especially high which was a pleasant bonus for my tall husband. We did not... More

The Palomar is a self-confidently chic place to stay -- unlike a lot of boutiques, it doesn't scream and shout about its cool factor. It doesn't need to. From the moment you enter the compact, handsomely modern lobby with its (pleasantly) scented air, you know this place is on top of its game. The staff members, particularly the doormen, are... More

Myself, my wife, and 3 dear friends from Indiana stayed here during a visit to Chicago in July 2012. This hotel was absolutely perfect - every i dotted, and every t crossed. The location in downtown Chicago was very close to all of the attractions we wanted to visit, as well as being convenient to the subway system for longer... More

This would be my third Palomar hotel I have stayed at and it did not disappoint. The service was good, staff was very helpful. The room was nice, a typical Kimpton room with the usual amenities. The only complaint I have is the bed was not as comfortable as they usually are in a Kimpton property. Other than that everything... More

We needed a last minute hotel when our first choice fell through. I booked Palomar Chicago through Trip Advisor for 3 nights and could not be more excited to share our stay. I am a huge bed/hotel snob. This place did not under deliver in any way. We landed in midway and took the train into the city. Ended up... More

The Palomar is my choice in Chicago, and their restaurant Sable is outstanding. The value for a business traveler like myself is tremendous, and the amenities an service make you feel like you're royalty.
